Report Of the Department. of
Agriculture for April.
WASHINGTON, April 9.-The report of
the Department of Agriculture for April
says the Pacific Slope barley seeding
time was dry, but the rains came later
and the whole breadth was put in fair
condition, though somewhat after the
usual date. The covering of snow DUR
ing the early portion of the winter was
better than usual over large part of the
wheat area, but there are from many
sections complaints of scanty protection
during the very trying weather since
February 18th. The month of March
was the most severe of series of years,
the temperature being below the average
over the whole wheat area of the Mis-
sissippi river. The alternate freezing
and thawing wrought serious damage.
The bare fields, especially in the bottom
and poorly drained lands of Pennsylva
MIA, Virginia and Ohio, suffered severely
from this inclemency. The general
average of condition is SS, the same as
in 1881, and higher than at the same
date in 1883 and 1885, when it was SO
and 76 respectively. The April condition
Of last year was 90 5. which was still
further improved by fair weather during
the month. The average for Californis
is 90 and for Oregon, 9S

Drs. Cantine and Fay as RePre-
sentative Men.

We do not speak OF their personal
characters at all, but only of two sys'
tens of thought, which we may call
Orthodox Faith and Agnostic Faith.
Mr.. Agnostic Faith comes or the stage
challenging Orthodox Faith and fires q
broadside fire into orth doxy, and Or.
thodox Faith makes no reply or resist
ance. This is a plea of inability to re-
ply to that fire and challenge. l assume
Orthodox Faith declines, because the
challenge is from an Agnostic Faith
acknowledging he is unable to explain
the knowledge by divine revelation OF
the only trus God and whom He hath
cent, Jesus Christ; and their rela-
ton, knowledge OF which gives eternal
life to man. Here now from the mouth
of Jesus Christ Is the only divine com.
mission of authority to any man to speak
in his name, Luke xxi, Is: "For l will
give you a mouth aud wisdom, which
all your adversaries shall not be able to
painsay nor resist" This is the only
possible proof of divine teacher sent in
the illumination and power of Jesus
Christ. "If / do not the works of my
Father believe me not" john x, 81, is
the evidence of Jesus b,i ing sent.
No teacher can nationally be received,
who does not understand himself what
he is called upon to teach, and who Is
unable to teach what is truth. ,srs1.
I will say that negative agnosticism,
that is, total ignorance, can never prove
anything, but that the man who offers
agnos ticism in evidence to prove any
thing is able to prove but one thing
thereby, that is, that he himself is an
ignorant fool. All truth is the truth of
q good to man, and hence can never be
realized but in the use of doing thLt
good to man. Hence violated truth is
evil.
1 will lend to any minister, editor or
any honest national layman book that
will settle the truth involved in the mat.
ter between these tao representative
men, and show that neither is an author
lied divine teacher. After all objections
are made to that book by all that is pos
sible for them to make, will publish a
seven chapter, and with mouth and
wisdom no man can gainsay or resist,
show them the only true God in Jesus
Christ and their divine relation by
which eternal life is given to man.

Hartine TOMS Advice TO the Un.
fOnfsts.

LONDON, April 9.--Lord Harrington
has written the following letter to the
Uaionists' meeting: "It is of great i'm
portance that some answer should be
given to the agitation which is being
promoted against the measure necessary
the main tenance of order in Ireland. 1t
is doubtless greatly to be regretted tha,
the government is compelled again to
resort to coercive measures, although
libtral statesmen have not shrunk from
on occasions proposing, in similar cir
cumstances, legislation of equal if not
greater severity.
1t is my firm conviction that the desire
which oompels the government to resort
to this policy is not spontaneous and is
not mainly caused to redress grievances.
II is the result of determination of
some leaders OF the Irish people to
prove that the government of Ireland by
the Parliament Of the United Kingdom Is
impossible and an attempt ia being
made to discredit both remedial and re-
pressive legislation. In my judgment,
this attempt ought to be firmly resisted
by the Unionists. both Liberal and Con-
servatives.

THE ECCLEsIAsrlCAL BILL
And the Bitter Controversy to
which IL Leads In Germany.
[Copy yrighted by the New York Associated

[Copy by the New York Associated
Press, 1887.
BERLIN, April 9.-The Ecclesiastical
bill has been liked as the order of the
day in the Unterhaus for the Goth. At
a recent short conference the national
leagues were disposed to assent to the
bill, after stating in the course Of the de-
bate that their acceptance would be con.
ditional on no further concessions being
made to the Vatican. The controversy
has become most bitter; the unceasiDg
hostile language of the Catholic press
has caused revolution in the pacific
mood of the National Liberal and Con.
servative papers. Instead of now dis.
cussing the acceptance of the measure,
as PASSED by the Oberhaus, the National
Liberals are disposed to reject the bill
unless all of Bishop Kopp's amendments
are strich en- out. In difference TO Prince
Bismarck they will consent to the adop.
ton of the original bill but will not 60
step beyond On the other hand the
Centre party begins to forward again the
whole Of Bishop Kopp's proposals, in.
Guiding those which the committee OF
the Oberhaus refused to entertain. DR..
Windthorst's expected submission to the
Vatican is only provisional. If the Con
servative and National Liberal groups
oppose entire freedom of the so-called
religious orders, including the right of
tuition in schools. the Centre will main
tain war, as these very points find the
bitterest opposition. The chances of u
Pacific settlement seem remote. Intense
irritation prevails on both sides. The
Centerists avow their readiness to sub
init to the Curia but maintain that
Prince Bismarck has outwitted the Vati-
can and that Mgr. Galimberti's mission
was a failure. The National Liberals
consider that Prince Bismarck has been
grossly deceived in trying to dominate
the Center party through hope.
